For over two years it hardly grew..didn't die though. Since using iron almost every day? Hey,it's looking good. It has this almost level ring of foliage and the newest leaf has red in it. Iron and red go together once again. There are few photos of this plant on the internet and none on youtube about it. I wonder why? A variegated sword plant is something that would be more popular especially since the foliage has an unusual lime green color. Give it a try.
